Now that places like Tyreland and Autodepot make it pointless to try sell used tyres (as they are so cheap), Ive been wondering what I should be doing with the collection of good tyres Im hoarding around my house.

Surely Im not the only one.. so anyone else interested in swapping tyres (what I have for what I need type stuff)? No point in anything less than 4mm thread and no Chinese widowmakers (Triangles) obviously but otherwise anything goes? What do you think? I do realise we have Adverts.ie for a reason, but Im not "selling" anything, this is more a social swap-meet affair (if thats not ok Mods will let me know Im sure ).

What I have:
2x 255x35x18" M+S (All Seasons I assume?) - from Brabus Merc wheel

2x 235x50x18" - from an e38 7 series

2x 255x35x20" - Pirellis off a new Audi S8, one easily to repair puncture (clean screw hole, shouldnt be an issue)

What I need
2x 275x35x18
4x 245x45x18
4x 205x50x16

In the interest of both financial sensibility and also limiting environmental impact, this is a "good thing" to do. :pac:
